  • Has Cotto even earned a crack at a MW title?

    I'm not so sure he has. Who has he beaten in that division to leapfrog over someone else?

    Obviously not, but you don't have to earn anything to get a crack at anything... Take Canelo for example

        No but its because he has a name that he can get that title shot. Just like Mayweather at 154 pounds. Or like when Manny fought Margarito at a cw for a vacant title. Its just boxing politics.

          He's built enough enough equity to fight whoever he wants at this point.

          Sergio ain't fighting GGG anytime soon. Whatever. Let's get it on.

                Much better accomplish boxer with a resume better than anyone in 160lb...not to mention 1T times better than "the great" hyperfraud Canelo.

                  Theres no dues to pay anmore, just look at Floyds opponents. Did Robert deserve a welter title shot? The guy was a lightweight with one welter fight!
                  Years ago you could break in the top ten if you moved up from a weight class where you were successfull now you just get moved because your considered a "low risk" opponent but you have credentals off your record!
                  Sergio should be fighting a ten rounder against Joe Blow and then 3 months after that fight GGG! Thats the way it should go down but he wants no part of anyone who could punch!
                  If he's not in great shape and doesn't show any ill effects from his injuries he should handle Cotto but if he's lacking fght condtioning and isn't "willing" to win Cotto just might best him. Cotto will bring everything he has left!

                    Im sure we will likely see the best Cotto ever, likely even better than Cotto that fought Floyd!

                    War Cotto!
